Line 41:
* [[The Television Talks Back]]: Nicki disappears when going to check out Videodrome, then appears to Max in his TV, and asks for a kiss. He does...and then things start to get really bizarre. Brian O'Blivion also starts to directly converse with Max in this way later on.
* [[There Are No Therapists]]: The only person coming close in the movie gets corrupted the fastest.
* [[Through the Eyes of Madness]]: The film is shown from the perspective of the protagonist, Max Renn, who has certainly gone batty at some point. Everything up to the first Brian O'Blivion tape he watches can be assumed to be real as he's still only slightly affected by the signal. But when Bianca tells him that his life could become "100% video hallucination", suddenly it looks more and more likely that the bizarre plot twists ({{spoiler|i.e. an evil conspiracy operating out of an opticians', his best friend being part of this conspiracy, murdering people with flesh/metal hybrid weaponry}})
* [[Unreliable Narrator]]: See [[Through the Eyes of Madness]], above.
* [[Vagina Dentata]]: Just about the only trope played straight. Except that it's on a man. In his abdomen.
